Better Times Ahead.
Russell Sage, in an interview given to
apress representative, gives this opinion
on the business ‘situation: “I look for
gradual improvement throughout the
land. It has been shown that the in-
telligent men of the country will unite
to remedy evils. The influence of the
election will be lasting, and I hope the
Republicans will not be unmindful of
the part which the honest elements of
the Democratic party took in the poli-
tical revolution, Faith Willlbe restored
in American institutions and enter-
prises, not only here but in Europe.
Europe will deal with us with greater
confidence, for it may be said that not
within fifty years has been such an up
rising by the people for proper regula-
tion of their affairs and the people
abroad understand it. I have no fear of
disturbing financial legislation.”
Protection From Train Robbers.
The trains‘ro‘obing industry, which
notwithstanding that it has been over-
worked lately, has proved in the main
lucrative, has resulted in a revival of
the old diSpute as to who shall protect
the express cars, the railway and ex-
press companies or the State. All
manner of suggestions have been made
about burglar-proof iron or steel cars,
guarded by employee who are to be
walking batteries, to which the railway
and express officials retort that the law
protects bank vaults and the fills and
money drawers of merchants and
shoopkeepers, and that it is the busi-
ness of the law to protect express trains
as well.
If the dispute is maintained along this
line the train robbers will have a hal-
cyon and vociferous time for a good
while to come, for while officials and
railways dispute about who shall fur-
nish the protection, there will be little
protection furnished by any one.
Theoretically, of course, the contention
that the law should protect railway
trains as well as other private property
is correct, but even bankers and mer-
chants find it profitable to employ
burglargproof safes and private watch-
men to slipplement thedefects. of the
law, which consists chiefly in the ina-
bility of policemen and public watch-
' men tofi‘kn‘ow‘ at what time and place
burglaries will be undertaken.
This weakness of the lawis‘ still more
manifest in its application to the pro-
tection of fast~m0ving trains running
through sparsely settled sections of the
country in which deep cuts or lonely
stretches of forest ofi'er unequaled op-
portunities for successful robberies.
Theoretically the law should protect
the train, but practically it cannot, be-
cause the officers of the law cannot be
expected to know of the localities and
seasons selected for train robbing. On
the contrary, if the express companies
undertake to furnish there own protec-
tion in the shape of steel cars accom-
panied by armed guards the protection
will be on hand at the time and place
when it is most needed.
That placing upon the express com-
panies the duty of protecting their own
Vali' ables in transit- will increase the
cost of transportation may be conceded
but a reasonable increase in express
charges to cover this additional
item of expense would be justified and
readily acquiesced in. If the express
companies want to be sure of protection
at the times and places at which it will
be. most needed the way to get it is to
furnish it themselves, leaving to the
law and its processes the task of hunt-
ing down and punishing those who at-
tempt train robbery.
The Adams Express Company has al-
ways been specially alert in following
up and apprehending all robberies on
its lines and securing the severest pos-
sible punishment of the malefactors.
It always pays for such losses with in-
stant promptness. '

Should Be investigated.
Two very serious charges are respon-
sibly made, gravely affecting the ofii-
cial action of public officers in this,
State, which should {receive a prompt
and thorough investigation from the
proper authorities. The first charge is
made by the reliable Hartford Courant
and is to the effect that the County
Commissioners made an ant-selection
bargain with saloon keepers that if the
saloons would contribute fifty dollars
each to the election fund, their licenses
should be reduced a hundred dollars l
Thus far, the GAZETTE has seen he. sat-
isfactory denial by the Hartford Com-
missioners, of the very serious charge
put forth by the Courant. For the
good name of Hartford county and fair
fame of the State, this matter should
be sifted to .the bottom. If these
County Commissioners have been ma-
ligned their innocence should be made
’ manifest. If they are guilty, their dist
graceshould be unmistakably fastened
nponthem. '
The similar charge publicly made to
the faces of the Fairfield County com-
missioners, at their session here yester-
day by Mr. John Malone, gives color
ll the existence of some
' z-Z-Lsuch‘ 131110" elections: understanding ~013--
agreement, although the rcpubl_ican___
members of these. commissioners do,
not appear to have been let into the
deal. i ' _. ‘ -
in its alleged dishonesty, and of far
greater importance in its local interest
and bearing. It is the following from
last evening’s Sentinel :
“The most profitable sheep deal ever
made in Norwalk was consummated With
the selectmen. yesterday. when they
paid Noah Wood.$40 for two sheep
which had been killed by dogs. .The
animals were appraised by James Mitch-
ell at $20 apiece, with the understand.
ing that Wood was to “whack up.”
This was done, and all parties con-
cerned are new content, excepts. few
indignant tax-payers. The sheep were
really Worth about $5 a head.”
Mr. James Mitchell indignantly de-
nies that there is the least shadow of
truth in the imputation cast upon him.
It is probable that the Sentinel has
been misled, .yet such a serious charge
affecting the integrity of our selectmen
and the good name of two reputable
citizens should not be lightly made,
but being made, the Sentinel owes it to
itself and the public to either furnish
its proof or withdraw its very serious
charge.
Amusements.
no rr’s OPERA HOUSE.
There is certainly a rare treat in
store for South Norwalk in the amuse-
ment line. The famous Norris Bros,

November Snowstorms.
Since the year 1881. including the
presentycar, there have been but five
months of November when enough
snow has fallen to be measured. In
this section of the country it is expect-
ed that the snow fall for the early part
of the winter wiil be remarkably light,
and the records have fully justified the
expectation. ’
Although in November, 1832, more
than double the amount of snow fell
in the three connected storms than
during the storm of last week, the ef«
fect was not so disastrous, as it was not
accompanied by severe winds.
The months of October since 1881
have been singularly free from rough
weather. There has been but one snow
storm'during the entire period.

mmissioners Meet in South
Norwalk.
The County Commissioners met in
this city yesterday afternoon, but ow«
ing to a feeling among liquor dealers
that $400 was to much to pay for a .11-
cause and the belief that the commis-
sioners could be prevailed upon to
reduce it to $300, but two applicants
appeared with their money, and they
both druggists, only that number of_ li-
censes were granted and the resswn
was adjourned.
The Commissioners met again to-day
this time at the Police Headquarters in’
South Nrrwalk, and the ice was broken
by “Mike” Laue who handed out his
$400 and in return received his license.
He was followed by Edward Quitt-
ner,and then there was a sort of a stam-
pede as to which should be next in
securing the coveted pieces of paper
furnished by the Commissioners at
$400 each.
.Up to the time ofbour going to press
the following applications had been
granted and the licenses delivered:

twenty-two little girls armed with buy
ing implements; a song “A cruel Hiss,”
by Thomas Cole. accompanied on the
piano by CarricHenry,won deserved ap-
plause as did also a song “Dan McKen-
na” by the same youngster. Birds and
Kittens” by fifty girls in costume was
loudly encored. “l‘he Kazoo band”
by sixteen boys came in for a liberal
share of applause.
The children have been instructed in
their several parts by the Sisters of the
Parochial school, and gave evidence of
much painstaking on the part of those
ladies. The entertainments have each
evening been under the able manage-
ment of Rev. Father O’Brien, who
preserved perfect discipline and order.

night were : Annie Betts. banjo; Geo.

Local Physicians Puzzled.
SOUTH PETERSBUBG, N. Y. —For two
months Melvin Church of this town was
confined to his bed, suffering with lum-
bago, rheumatism and kidney com-
plaint. The regular treatment was
prescribed by his phvsicians without
benefit. Dr. David Kennedy’s Fav-
orite Remedy was then used with the
most satisfactory results.
In speaking about his case Mr.
Church said : “ After taking about two
thirds of a bottle, I began to get relief,
and when I had taken three bottles I
was well and strong. /
